The first brisk weekend of the fall was also a particularly violent one on the streets of Philadelphia.

Eight people were hospitalized after five separate shootings this weekend, including a man who suffered multiple gunshot wounds after allegedly brawling with cops, then stealing a patrol car and dragging an officer 50 feet in Hunting Park Saturday morning.

About 8:15 a.m., 39th District cops responded to a call of a domestic dispute at 22nd Street near Hunting Park Avenue, said Sgt. Gary Ferguson of Northwest Detectives.

There they found Mahlon Cobb, 26, assaulting his 30-year-old ex-girlfriend, Ferguson said. When police tried to arrest him, Cobb dove headfirst out of a second-floor window into an alleyway and fled down Tioga Street, he said.

Police encountered him again at 23rd and Tioga streets, where police say Cobb punched and kicked one cop to the ground, then tried to steal his gun.

Two other police officers tried to subdue him, but were unsuccessful, Ferguson said.

He said Cobb then jumped onto the hood of a patrol car and slid into the driver's seat and took off. A cop tried to stop him, but was dragged 50 feet before other officers opened fire. Cobb was shot in the abdomen, hip, thigh and buttocks.

Cobb was taken to Temple University Hospital, where he was in critical but stable condition. He has been charged with aggravated assault and other offenses. The police officer suffered minor injuries.

Seriously, dude jumped out of a fucking 30ft second story window, ridiculous. All PCP'd up. Argh.....

The cop that shot him was halfway under the car when he started shooting, like legs under so as he was like worming from out under he shot.
